Perform these steps at ypur won risk. Plz take the backup of your regisrty before doing so....!

1. Delete the following files if present
%windir%\pif\cvt.exe
%windir%\INF\inf31.exe
inf31.exe
IDTemplate.exe
%windir%\Application Data\IDTemplate.exe
%profiledir%\Local Settings\Application Data\GavGent.B
IDTemplate.exe
%mypicturesdir%\about.Brontok.A.html

2. Delete any Cookies by Brontok.A

3. Delete the following registry key
Brontok.A does not create any registry keys
And registry valyues
SystemGent
IDTemplates

Reboot your system and reboot if the problem prevails or not.

for removing brontok u can use updated version of NOD32, it does the task very well.
kaspersky online scanner http://www.kaspersky.com/virusscanner is also a very good resource for cleaning brontok.

NOD32 - www.eset.com and Kaspersky - www.kaspersky.com are the best AntiVirus solutions available i the market.

If you want a free AntiVirus, then only go for avast or avira. www.avast.com

But still I suggest NOD32 or Kaspersky........
